"The positing of self-affirmation and self-confirmation present in the negation of the negation is not considered to be an independent affirmation since it is not yet sure of itself, still burdened with its opposite, doubtful of itself and thus needing proof, and not demonstrated by the fact of its own existence. It is therefore contrasted directly with affirmation that is verified by the senses and based on itself."

Happiness is nothing more than good health and a bad memory.
